Experiential Learning Track - 3:00 pm-4:00 pm
This one-hour session is geared toward introducing participants who are interested in learning about the different types of simulation modalities offered in the UT Southwestern Simulation Center. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with many different types of simulators including inanimate (box) trainers, virtual reality trainers, and high fidelity patient manikin. Discussions on assessment tools, deliberate practice vs unstructured practice, and team training are seamlessly woven into the experience. This is an interactive session. Active participation is not just encouraged, it is a required element needed for a successful session. Upon the completion of this session, participants will have the knowledge needed to describe the advantages and disadvantages of VR trainers, inanimate trainers, and high fidelity trainers. Participants will be able to explain the relevant differences between unstructured and deliberate practice, as well as the key elements of proficiency-based training.
